"Improbable Cause"/"The Die is Cast" Line-by-Line

Odo: If you attack the Dominion they'll certainly strike back. You'll be taking Romulus and Cardassia into war. A War you may not win.
 
TAIN: I don't think they'll be striking back. Our intention is to wipe out the Dominion in one single blow by eliminating the Founders. Without them, the Dominion will collapse. You seem disturbed by this, changeling. Why? After all, didn't you turn your back on your people.
 
Garak: You'll forgive me if I reduce the scope of this conversation to something a little more personal, but why was it necessary to kill me and the rest of our former colleagues, in order to embark on this excursion to the Gamma Quadrant?
 
TAIN: Because, Garak, I don't plan on going back into retirement when this is over. I plan on going back to my old job and my old life.
 
Garak: You were afraid we knew things, things which could be used against you, so you decided to have us eliminated.
 
TAIN: Like I used to say. Always burn your bridges behind you. You never know who might be trying to follow.
 
Garak: You always used to say as well that the Tal Shiar was sloppy. You never should have relied on them to burn your bridges.
 
Garak: Actually, I blew up my shop. It was a way of piquing the interest of the good constable.
 
TAIN: You blew up your own shop? You, my friend, are a true original. If you hadn't betrayed me, things would have been very different.
 
Garak: I never betrayed you..... at least not in my heart. I came here, because I thought that the Romulans were trying to kill you. I came here... to save you.
 
TAIN: The changeling of course will have to stay, but you're free to go. Your runabout is in launching bay three.
